[Docs] Add documentation contribution docs
Now that we are in charge of managing our documentation I thought we should have a section in the Contributor Guide on how to contribute documentation. This patch adds that. It also resolves build WARNINGS due to the README files I added not being included in any toctrees and adds the missing README file to the install directory.

Contributing Documentation to Cinder
|
||||||
|
====================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting with the Pike release, Cinder's documentation has been moved from
|
||||||
|
the openstack-manuals repository to the ``docs`` directory in the Cinder
|
||||||
|
repository. This makes it even more important that Cinder add and
|
||||||
|
maintain good documentation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Documentation for python-cinderclient and os-brick has undergone the
|
||||||
|
same transition. The information here can be applied for those
|
||||||
|
projects as well.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This page provides guidance on how to provide documentation for those
|
||||||
|
who may not have previously been active writing documentation for
|
||||||
|
OpenStack.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Using RST
|
||||||
|
---------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
OpenStack documentation uses reStructuredText to write documentation.
|
||||||
|
The files end with a ``.rst`` extension. The ``.rst`` files are then
|
||||||
|
processed by Sphinx to build HTML based on the RST files.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
Files that are to be included using the ``.. include::`` directive in an
|
||||||
|
RST file should use the ``.inc`` extension. If you instead use the ``.rst``
|
||||||
|
this will result in the RST file being processed twice during the build and
|
||||||
|
cause Sphinx to generate a warning during the build.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
reStructuredText is a powerful language for generating web pages. The
|
||||||
|
documentation team has put together an `RST conventions`_ page with information
|
||||||
|
and links related to RST.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. _RST conventions: https://docs.openstack.org/contributor-guide/rst-conv.html
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Building Cinder's Documentation
|
||||||
|
-------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To build documentation the following command should be used:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
tox -e docs,pep8
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When building documentation it is important to also run pep8 as it is easy
|
||||||
|
to introduce pep8 failures when adding documentation. Currently, we do not
|
||||||
|
have the build configured to treat warnings as errors, so it is also important
|
||||||
|
to check the build output to ensure that no warnings are produced by Sphinx.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Many Sphinx warnings result in improperly formatted pages being generated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
During the documentation build a number of things happen:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* All of the RST files under ``doc/source`` are processed and built.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* The openstackdocs theme is applied to all of the files so that they
|
||||||
|
will look consistent with all the other OpenStack documentation.
|
||||||
|
* The resulting HTML is put into ``doc/build/html``.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Sample files like cinder.conf.sample are generated and put into ``doc/soure/_static``.
|
||||||
|
* All of Cinder's ``.py`` files are processed and the docstrings are used to
|
||||||
|
generate the files under ``doc/source/contributor/api``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the build completes the results may be accessed via a web browser in
|
||||||
|
the ``doc/build/html`` directory structure.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Review and Release Process
|
||||||
|
--------------------------
|
||||||
|
Documentation changes go through the same review process as all other changes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Reviewers can see the resulting web page output by clicking on
|
||||||
|
``gate-cinder-docs-ubuntu-xenial``!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once a patch is approved it is immediately released to the docs.openstack.org
|
||||||
|
website and can be seen under Cinder's Documentation Page at
|
||||||
|
https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest . When a new release is cut a
|
||||||
|
snapshot of that documentation will be kept at
|
||||||
|
https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/<release> . Changes from master can be
|
||||||
|
backported to previous branches if necessary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Doc Directory Structure
|
||||||
|
-----------------------
|
||||||
|
The main location for Cinder's documentation is the ``doc/source`` directory.
|
||||||
|
The top level index file that is seen at
|
||||||
|
`https://docs.openstack/org/cinder/latest`_ resides here as well as the
|
||||||
|
``conf.py`` file which is used to set a number of parameters for the build
|
||||||
|
of OpenStack's documentation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each of the directories under source are for specific kinds of documentation
|
||||||
|
as is documented in the ``README`` in each directory:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. toctree::

||||||
|

ready to use in an OpenStack or standalone environment should be put
